Summa announces $350 million in facility upgrades, including new six-story tower at Akron City Hospital
Summa Health plans to pump $350 million into its facilities, including construction of a new six-story tower on its main campus on the edge of downtown Akron.
The building — facing North Adolph Street, overlooking state Route 8 — will serve as Summa Akron City Hospital’s new main entrance, as well as house a women’s health center and help shift most of the hospital’s inpatient rooms from shared to private.
Summa also plans to build a 50,000-square-foot medical office building on its main campus off East Market Street and spend $22 million on additional improvements to make Barberton Hospital a more user-friendly community hospital.
“Today is especially significant because it marks the beginning of a new era of health care at Summa Health,” Dr. Thomas Malone, Summa’s president and CEO, said in a prepared statement released on Tuesday.
